About
Building digital products that perform. No fluff, no over-engineering—just clean code that solves real problems.
Speed Matters
Time-to-market is competitive advantage. I optimize for shipping fast without cutting corners on quality.
Simplicity Wins
The best code is code that doesn't exist. Every line should earn its place. Complex problems deserve simple solutions.
Outcomes Over Output
Features don't matter if they don't move metrics. Everything is measured against business impact.
Flight Readiness Process
Mission Briefing
Deep dive into your goals, constraints, and success metrics. We map the problem space before writing any code.
Proof of Concept
Validate core assumptions with working prototypes. Fast feedback loops to derisk technical decisions.
Development Sprint
Iterative development with weekly demos. Continuous integration and deployment from day one.
Liftoff
Staged rollout with monitoring. Performance optimization and edge case handling.
Mission Control
Ongoing performance monitoring, bug fixes, and iterative improvements based on real usage data.
Payload Stack
Tools I reach for daily. Battle-tested, well-documented, and built for scale.

Black Box Logs
Lessons learned the hard way. Every failure is a system improvement waiting to happen.
The 3AM Database Migration
Always test migrations with production-sized datasets. Our 5-minute local migration took 4 hours in production.
The Cached Null Response
Caching empty responses led to a 2-hour outage. When the source recovered, stale nulls persisted.
The Floating Point Invoice
Using floats for currency caused $0.01 discrepancies that compounded into a $12k accounting error.
